500ml bottle. Wonderful, crystal clear, redd-ish, copper-ish, dark amber colour with average, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Mellow, minimally grainy-spicy, (caramel) malty aroma, a touch of rye, spelt, rye-like spiciness, some caramel. Taste is minimally bready-grainy, pale malty, slightly caramel and minimally dark malty, some residual sweetness, mildly bitter, hoppy counterpart, hints of caramel, a touch of malt lozenge, rye-like spiciness, a weak sugary touch of rock sugar.
Watery texture, smooth, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Nice appearance, nice spicy touch, fairly drinkable - nothing spectacular overall.
